Ethernet/USB Ports
Use the Ethernet port to remote control the DVE6100 Exciter. Access to the
service is via the internal web server using a standard web browser or SNMP.
Use the USB port for licence and software upgrades. License upgrades enable
additional functionality for the DVE6100 Exciter.
Section 8 provides upgrade information and contact details to buy additional
licenses directly from Vislink or from your local representative.

IP Video (future option)
This Ethernet port is used for “IP encapsulated” ASI transport streams.
The port is compatible with 10/100/1000Base-T Ethernet.
5.11.1.
ASI to IP Video
The menu option ASI SRC defines the source of the ASI for encapsulation. This
can be either from, the external ASI connector EXT ASI, the output of the
internal encoder MUX O/P or OFF.
A defined destination address is required to direct Ethernet packets. This is
entered at DEST IP.
As the source of the IP encapsulator could be the output of the internal encoder.
This, in turn, could be a multiplex of several ASI signals. You can stream multiple
ASI channels over one IP path. You can decode separate ASI signals at a remote
location using service names to extract the various services in the same manner
as if it was a direct ASI connection.
Depending on the amount of FEC applied, you can stream approximately 80Mb/s
total over 100M Ethernet.
Encapsulation type ENC TYP the choices are UDP only or RTP/UDP.
You can configure the IP video to cross networks using the default gateway and
sub-net mask setup parameters.
The unit supports Multicast and automatically enables it if the destination
address is set in a multicast address range 224.0.0.0 through 239.255.255.255
inclusive.
5.11.2.
IP to ASI
The DVE6100 can de-encapsulate ASI from an incoming RTP IP stream by
selecting the appropriate PORT number.
The external IP source should have its destination address set to that of the
Ethernet PHY of the receiving DVE6100 Exciter; this is set on the IP Ethernet
menu.
IP IN takes the de-encapsulated ASI and multiplexes with the internal encoder(s)
to form a multiservice stream. For multiplexing information, see Section 7.1.5.
You can convert IP Video independently of the encoding functions of the
DVE6100 Exciter. Achieve this by selecting the units ASI output source selection
to be IP.
